Classical physics theories suggest that when two or more electromagnetic waves interfere destructively (i.e., with their electric fields canceling each other out), they cannot interact with matter.

Repulsive gravity at the quantum scale would have flattened out inhomogeneities in the early universe First light: The cosmic ...

Explore Ohm's Law and its key relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in conductors and quantum mechanics.

and the limits of classical physics, introduction to special relativity. Pre-Req: PHYS 1440 Physics II with a 'C-' or higher, or Spring 2020 grade of 'P', Co-Req: PHYS 2610L The Physics of Materials & ...

Indeed, the disappearance of such effects is a sign that the object’s wavefunction has “decohered” – that is, the object has stopped behaving like a wave and started obeying the laws of classical ...

Advance your knowledge in core areas of physics, including electrodynamics, quantum, classical mechanics, and statistical physics. Gain research and technical skills while tailoring the program to ...

Their findings highlight that quantum physics is far stranger and less classical than previously understood. Everyday experiences follow clear, sensible rules. For example, if you find a letter in ...
